In the German 2nd division (now with Simmonds, Stewart, D'Agostini, DiPietro and Hall) each team's leading scorer has to wear a golden helmet. They introduced this last seasons for whatever reason. Looks tacky as hell but what can you do?

Nope, not in FEL at least. I think it's pocket money compared to their NHL contracts. Maybe something for guys making less than mil but not much. Best players in FEL get low 6 figures in a year, good juniors get little less than 100 000.
